罪惡感和羞恥感常夾雜著一些負面情緒，如揮之不去的魅影困人於不悅、甚至失功能的光景。本專文將分二部分探討這些感覺並其紓緩之道。引言將從聖經角度簡要地探討罪惡感和羞恥感與罪的關係，並其對人的影響；藉此具體定義該專文的討論焦點。專文第一部分將分析亞當與夏娃因罪而經歷的罪感與恥感，藉此分析其本質的不同，也將透過以色列百姓的生活經驗進一步區辨其差異。此外，將介紹心理學者認為罪感與恥感對人造成的心理傷害與挾制，並與聖經觀點作比較。第二部分，將從聖經歸納神處治人的罪感和恥感的原則，也將比對心理學者的療癒原則。本文期待提供初步的整合觀點，除了幫助基督徒從信仰角度認識罪惡感和羞愧感並聖經的基本處治原則，也藉助心理學對人的治療實務經驗，提供較整全的療癒方向與原則。

As a haunting phantom, guilt and shame entangled with negative feelings confine people to a miserable and even dysfunctional plight. This article explores these feelings and the ways of their relief in two parts. To further define the focus of this article, the Introduction, taking from the biblical perspective, will succinctly elucidate the relationship between guilt-shame and sin as well as their impact on humans. The first part of the article distinguishes guilt from shame in nature and in human life. How Adam and Eve, when sinning against God, experienced guilt-shame reveals the very nature of guilt and shame, which is affirmed by the life of Israelites. Furthermore, the psychological view of the nature and impact of guilt-shame will be introduced and a comparison between the psychological perspective and the biblical one will be drawn. The second part of the article deals with the principles for the treatment of guilt and shame presented in the Bible and proposed by psychologists. This preliminary integration of theology and psychology is expected not only to bring in the Christian understanding of guilt-shame and offer the biblical principles for treatment but to apply the practical contribution of psychology to therapy so as to give a more thorough consideration for the treatment of guilt and shame.
